AkibaRanger 08 released
The plot thickens. Looks like Malshiina and Hakase's dad are working together for something. I enjoyed learning that stuff about producer Tsukada, who sounds like an interesting guy who's worked on some of my favorite shows.
Also, I knew that was Bishop from Kiva. His skinny look and that voice of his is so recognizable.
This is cute, when Malshiina is talking, she has a figure of Tsukada as he represents himself in the comics:
And it's a work in progress, but here's our wiki article on episode 8. If you like trivia, please check it out (And if you're a good writer, please consider joining us in working on it)

I think one of my favorite parts was when Akagi mentioned Commander Ibuki then you just see the dude's face appear out of nowhere. XD

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
The beginning really made me feel like I'm watching an anime. I'll probably check out Z-Cune Aoi someday when it's out.
Also, anyone noticed how the last episode ended with Kozukozu accidently throwing food while this episode started with that scene edited out?
Anyway, this was a nice episode. The plot is getting more and more interesting. What kind of person is Hakase's father actually? Who was that creepy guy during the AkibaRanger fight in the real world? Is that perhaps Hakase's father? What is Malshiina planning by having the AkibaRangers break down the barrier between the two worlds?
I also liked the GekiRanger and Go-Onger references in the episode

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
Push of a button, training starts by running from explosions! Awesome. It seems like they've gotten the idea about to break out of the delusion world. This series keeps getting better! I'll admit, by now, I'm starting to get into Go-Busters but they keep having Akibaranger one up it. At least I get the reason now.

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
I must admit i wasn´t expecting for this show to have an actual plot, but damn am i glad i was wrong.
Probably my favorite parts were the references to Go-onger and Gekiranger, and its always fun to hear the sentai themes playing in the sentai caffe, we really need more of those places in the world.
It´s also brilliant how they managed to cram so many episode patterns into one, we had training montages, bond with the enemy, and bond with the enemy + betrayal, and all leading up team attack upgrade/cannon.
BTW, am i the only one who found the chief clerk to be adorable?

Not even my father hit me. Classic Gundam reference.
And the combination cannon. I love this show.

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
Smoking is bad for you kids!
Interesting note, when Alpaca says he wants to change Akiba into Akihabara Monja Town, it's a reference to one of the subway exits in Akiba called Akihabara Electric Town.
So was the policeman really taking Malshiina away to the station for smoking? Or did he have other intentions.... (I know I would with her in that outfit)

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
Hakase-hakase, you're so dumb. Why would you not immediately go to the people who make Z-Cune Aoi instead of dicking around Tokyo's various animation studios?

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
The plot unfolds. Seriously hakase... You go everywhere, but go to Aoi last. Come on. The Akibarangers need to really stop thinking about being stars. When they shot their finisher off. I was like: "You really are gonna shoot a huge weapon, at the monster, that has civilians right behind him...". It's cool they're combining so many elements of sentai episodes. Even the Real World stuff is similar to Digimon.

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
So the name of their favorite ep is Z-cune Aoi and the mysterious door... Interesting.
LOL @ the present chance and @ the alpaca bowing and hitting red.
They got a bazooka with the 3 powers. It seems it'll be 13 after all, since they already got the mecha and the bazooka with 3 powers... A shame. I really wished to see the 4th. Well, maybe if they do a 2nd season.
The awkward moment when you realize your father is the villain, huh, Hakase?
The training bit was good fan service and the Alpaca's plan was funny.
Another good episode.

Re: AkibaRanger 08 released
Anyone else notice that Akagi mentions Changeman a lot? Maybe it was his first one? He's 29 so...subtract 29-30 from 2012...1982-1983...Changeman came out in 1985. Seems a bit young, but I started watching Power Rangers at that age, so who am I too talk.
Maybe it's just one of his favorites.

It more seemed like she was trying to find out her father's activities that led up to Z-Cune Aoi.dancercotillion wrote:Hakase-hakase, you're so dumb. Why would you not immediately go to the people who make Z-Cune Aoi instead of dicking around Tokyo's various animation studios?

And is it 13 episodes or 12?
